Stan Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Here's a badge I bought a couple of months ago primarily because of the inscription on the back "H. Reitzig/ Fliegerhorst Staaken".It also appears to be an early Juncker as it has the recesses in the wreath to accomodate the wings.Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERIC Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Hi Stan, That's a sweet one with a 2nd model (alu. style) eagle! The inscriptions add so much to it - congrats on a nice 1st pattern!ERIC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briest.Kg2 (Holzhammer) took part in the 'Battle of Britain' and 'Briest' was the airbase at Brandenburg-Briest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Posted May 6, 2008 Author Share Posted May 6, 2008 Hi John,Thanks for posting that badge. I think it's great when you can link items to a person. In the 1980's I bought an Ehrenpokal from Forman which was an "835" silver version. The date of the award was 31.3.1941 and his name was Oberfeldwebel Lothar Tiekenhenrich and Forman told me it was a Battle of Britain piece.For years and years I tried in vain to get details on this guy until someone on the forum suggested I contact WASt in Berlin so I wrote to them and forgot all about it. Six months later I got the reply that he was in Stab II/KG55 flying Heinkel 111's during the Battle of Britain! I was delighted!Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
